You are a design geek. Fonts speak to you. The bad kerning at your local coffee shop makes you tear up and you dream of fixing it. You wish all graphic design could be good enough to wear on a t-shirt, so you can frame it next to your vintage Saul Bass poster collection. That’s ok, we get it, we live it, we shed designer tears every day in our effort to convince people that design is a process and a way of thinking or solving challenges as much as it is a pretty picture at the end.

You draw, well —before you fire up Adobe’s CS suite on the Mac. You wave your hands around in meetings when you explain how something is going to resolve. You take chances and try and try again. Quickly.

You aren’t afraid to give something a shot, to get it right. or better it, even if that means missing Ukulele practice that night.

You design. But you also know you produce layout that efficiently goes to press because production is an execution that has to happen and doing it well while doing it fast means seeing things come to life. It’s a fact of life and you are good at life. And all the while you do this in an organized and accountable manner.

You enjoy new challenges and design for any medium, including web. You understand that knowing what goes into web makes you a better designer and so you aren't afraid to dabble in a little HTML or format an emailer.
